It sounds like a problem with an underlying driver. I'm doubt it's worth trying to work around in dd. Besides, what can dd do? If you request a block size of 32, it can't very well opt to use 512 because using 32 might make hang a buggy driver. > I see what you mean, the perl script does this: > > read(3, "bbbbbb 2005-10-21T21:35:06-0500 "..., 4096) = 512 > > Then this: > > write(1, "bbbbbb 2005-10-21T21:35:06-0500 ", 32) = 32 Did you try specifying just the *output* block size? E.g., rather than using bs=32 (which sets both input and output block sizes), specify only obs=32. _______________________________________________ Bug-coreutils mailing list [email protected] http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/bug-coreutils
